This looks shonky to me...
"Item is described accurately and as such returns are not accepted."
No manual - if it really was put away for 20 years, where is the manual?
No serial number posted. Why not?
It just doesn't smell right for some reason.... |

| A picture of the bottom and the PCB inside should be posted, given the asking price .... just to make sure the silver-screw matches correct era circuit board. |

not saying it's not fishy... but I do see pics for the PCB and the bottom
and it's an O beneath R pedal....
HOWEVER... if it does seem fishy maybe it is and I don't wanna be responsible for someone buying a smelly pedal.
Just wanted to give you the heads up - since it looked nice.

The 8-pin NEC chip places it (most likely) very early after the end of the 14-pin versions.. (the last 14-pins were NECs, before that Raytheon). If it was momentary, he'd definitely mention it.
My guess is #8800-9100. I have ones on either end of that range, all with different op-amps.
I don't want to buy it, but I want to see someone pay that price for one.   |

| I would ask more pics of the box, if i am right the box should not be of the glossy type like this one appears to be, besides that it is way overpriced. |

I'm starting to think you guys are suffering from full grown paranoia
The box for my ss SP-1 (momentary LED) can be quite glossy if it's the right angle.
if it would've bin a 14-pin version I'd be more interested though. |

I guess it's always wise to be cautious. And it's okay to be worried. I've been lucky so far and may be a bit too naive....
But I have not seen any clue so far that suggests that this pedal is not original. all I'm saying. |

The box looks authentic to me. The texture seems to be the papery low-gloss, despite the flare from the flash.
It'd be really nice alongside some of its brothers in my collection.. too bad property taxes are due..
What do you all think it's really worth? $200? |
